Nozomanu Fushi no Boukensha

Chapter 24



The severity of battling them while I\'m alive is just like a lie, I could split them in half by taking the back of bone man(Skeleton) with ease.

It\'s unbelieveable.

It doesn\'t means that my sword of arms is changed at all.

But, the power dwelling in my body―― the quantity of my magical power, qi, and reiki keep increasing everytimes I beat the demons.

When I\'m strengthening my power using any of those, my body which feel sluggish up till now was moving nicely according to my intention.

During my live, I often practicing it while imagine it properly on how to move my body in my head(image training).

I got blisters, collapsed, even so I keep swinging my sword, but my body couldn\'t move as I want.

But, how about now.

My body moving as how I imagine it.

My body even blurred slightly.

I can see the movement of my opponent even more clearly and my sense is getting sharper.

Undoubtly, this kind of world might be the one seen by those guys who\'s walking above me.

Though it\'s the world that I absolutely never seen when I was alive, the current me has see it.

If possible, I would want to enter this state when I was alive but, in the end that\'s already impossible……..

Well, even so, it\'s not a bad thing since I can still fight with my own will even when I died.

If it\'s keep like this, I might become Mithril rank adventurer faster than I expected……..

There\'s still part of me which think so as I unintentionally thought about it despite already in this kind of state.

Could it be that, I\'ll keep working as and adventurer.

Basically the one called adventurer are something that any human can become.

Of course if the meaning of adventurer limited to just this much, there\'s many guys who\'s retiring after being unable to raise their rank like me but, if it\'s just registering as an adventurer, it\'s something you can become if your age is 15 years old.

But……

As expected, what will happen if a demon become an adventurer?

If I\'m trying to ask about it………

I expect that I might be not be able to become one, the so called commonplace answer was appearing in my head.

You\'ll know if you think about it.

During a certain day, a skeleton with some flesh just briskly walking and then entering the Adventurer Guild(Guild).

And then it keep advancing like dragging his legs till arriving at the receptionist, it then stretched it\'s withered arms toward the receptionist after that as it says with groaning-like voice.

「Pyea-se…………. MadE M-mE………….I-INTo AN advEnTu……… ReR!」

…… It\'s a horror you know.

The receptionist definitely won\'t say "Yes".

She will press the emergency button under the receptionist desk, to call the Chief of adventurer guild(Guild Master) or strong adventurer, and yes, just like that the scenery of the subjugation of one monster is playing vividly in my head.

But, if the situation might turn that way.

*************************

I can say for sure that I………….. might not be able to continue as an adventurer……..

Maybe I must stop thinking like that.

Even leaving that aside, I shuld think on how to keep working as an adventurer.

If you want to know why, it\'s because I, definitely will become a Mithril rank adventurer.

Especially because my talent was at it\'s extreme bottleneck, it seems the solution of my goal has been found when I became a monster.

And yet, that bring another trouble for me since I can\'t become adventurer as I\'m now.

But, as I thought, I still can\'t come with a solution on how to continue my job as an adventurer.

I\'ve say this so many times before but, the Adventurer Guild(Guild) will certainly opening the path of adventurer to anyone but, there\'s no way they\'ll do so if the applicant is a monster.

Though I made a request for clothing to that adventurer girl called Lena, anything she bought practically will become a robe to hide my body, assuming that I\'ll use it to hide this withered body of mine, my face will be seen clearly if it\'s from close distance, no matter what, my arm will be for anyone to see when exchanging material, money or, writing documents.

When my current body was seen.

……. It\'s withering.

It can\'t be helped, it\'s withering after all.

Though I felt that the color of the withered meat was light brown a while before, it\'s turned eerie with tinge of black now.

When this kind of arms is being presented in front of your eyes, there might be no human who won\'t show any particular reaction right.

Maybe there\'s people who won\'t give that much consideration about it but………..

No, I should stop this.

Though I, Lent Fayna didn\'t have some sort of special skills, my face is very well known.

Despite I live as an eternal copper rank adventurer, the people who don\'t know my face is just minority since I\'m putting all sort of effort so I won\'t be told to stop right away.

In short, my appearance is known by majority of people who belong to the Adventurer Guild(Guild).

When that kind of me suddenly showing up one day with this kind of skills, it\'ll be followed by various kind of question.

Not only just the so called curious, things like worry, thinking that there might be some sort of dangerous demon wriggling in the labyrinth, I ought to be questioned even if it\'s for information gathering.

When things already reaching that stage…………. There\'s high possibilities that they might tear my robe.

If it\'s just my arms, I might be able to prepare some excuse.

Something along "It was withering since my vitality is sucked by a slightly strange monster".

But, it\'s the end if they saw my face.

Though I don\'t know since I have no mirror, I certainly have the feeling that I become that skeleton with flesh dropping from the feeling of my touch.

Even how I become like this, it might turning into a story such as "If not subjugated, I will degenerated into a threat" with that sort of reason.

The more I think about it, the more it turning into a checkmate situation…….

*****************

I unintentionally imagining the situation that I don\'t want to happen.

It seems my determination is wavering again.

But, it\'s settled for the time being.

Anyway, the problem is only about my appearance………. while for the time being my appearance is still something open to see.

As I thought, I\'ll calm myself first and go with the first plan and settled with evolution existance.

Even if I goes out to the cite, it might be better for me to keep my distance from the Adventurer Guild(Guild) till my appearance somehow become safe to see…….. But, no, if I do that the work to gain my income will…….

When I\'m thingking regarding various difficult problem waiting for me, I suddenly heard voice called from distance.

「……Lent-sa~n! ……Lent-sa~n! Where are you! ? 」

This is, there\'s no doubt about it, this is the voice of Lena, the adventurer girl to whom I made my request yesterday.

*******************

「……Hyiiiiii!? 」

The one who raised such voice while approaching me is one who I expected, that adventurer girl, Lena.

Though screaming the moment she saw me as if gulping dread-like feeling, well it can\'t be helped if she saw my current appearance.

Lena\'s gradually asking with timid voice.

「………U-Uhm……….. Y-You\'re L-Lent-san, right? Or, are you, another one like him ……?  」

Of course while setting a stance with her sword.

Well, it\'s just natural right.

Even if I say to judge individual difference between us it\'s normally impossible.

Even if I say who is the similar of the same color is who, having to decide that is just unreasonable.

That\'s why, I replied to Lena question.

「……T-That\'s right. I\'m, Lent……」

I can aomewhat speak more clearly*, it was because I keep practicing after that. [TL : YAAAY, No SUFFERING WITH THOSE HARD TO UNDERSTAND WORDS ANYMORE!!!!]

My voice become clear, just a bit, I feel that this\'ll be easier to understand.

The meaning I feel doesn\'t mean that I can just speak clearly to human, Since I was only grumbling with myself, I don\'t know how to measure it since I\'m the object of evaluation.

But, Lena is,

「……Ah, thank goodness…… I was wondering what would happen if it\'s different one……N? For some reason, it seems your speech become slightly better……」

Since she says so, it seems I didn\'t make a mistake with my sense.

**************************

「…….I-I trained it……….. since I, want………….. to become able to talk even more」

「So that\'s the reason! That is the right choice right. You\'re going to enter the city after this right……….. Next i~s, ah that\'s right. Here, the item you\'re wishing for and then, here the change! 」

Having said that, Lena put the bag on the ground.

it seems so many things is packed into that bag.

Naturally, it\'s my ordered item, there\'s cloth in that bag.

When I approaching Lena direction while trembling in excitement, Lena was picking some distance from the bag.

I stopping my gait as if feeling a bit shocked by it.

Thereupon, Lena,

「I-I\'m sorry………… Uhm, I\'m still feeling scared………. P_please give me a bit of time till I\'m used to it!」

For her to say something like that.

……No.

Well, she probably doesn\'t have any other way.

In the first place, I\'m quite grateful to her just for having a communication with me who can be seen as nothing but monster in this situation.

So, I、

「………….I-I don\'t mind………………… It\'s a good thing that you\'re not falsifying it………… Moreover, may I also confirming the, clothes………?」

When I say so, Lena,

「Yeah! Please by all means!  Please confirm it since I also bought many other things that you might need except for the cloth」

Since she said that, I approached the bag and opened the mouth of the bag.
